With just a few simple ingredients, you can create these delightful little mints in any flavor or color. So have fun and enjoy making your own batch of buttery butter mints.
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 tablespoons hot water
1 tablespoon imitation butter flavor or oil-based flavoring
food coloring as desired
1 pound powdered sugar
In a bowl, mix together the melted butter, hot water, flavoring, and food color. While stirring, add the powdered sugar and mix well until it forms a dough.
Roll out the dough into ropes and cut into 1/2-inch mints. Or, press into molds.
When the mints have hardened, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
